I recently upgraded to wm6 from the t-mobile site. At first it was running flawlessly and very fast. I have installed windows live, resco and tcmp and still things were quick. after a few weeks, strange things started happening. When i went to my SMS/MMS and began to write a message, the flashing cursor would move along as i typed but no letters would show up on the screen. If i saved this message inot drafts then opened it again, i could then see all the text i had written and was previously hidden.
Soon aftet this started happening, the same began in windows live, then word etc...
recently, my athena has started to crash within an hour of a reset. Most of the time, if i start a program, just the bar at the top will load and nothing else, this is most serious in SMS/MMS. also, when this happens and i got to memory (the start menu and setting tab are still quick) it shows that i always have over 50 meg of ram left. Although, if this helps at all, the device runs slowest when turned on from sleep mode. Before i put the device in sleep mode, when i goto file explorer i can hear the microdrive fire up and this programme runs slow. after if has been in sleep for 20 mins or so, file explorer will never boot up properly and there is no noise from the microdrive.
I have tried hard rest, starts fast again, then slows to nothing after few days. I have tried various tweaks i have seen on here, such as disabling autooff and disabling the x-button programme. I have run spybot and antovirus software and nothing. Anyone got any ideas? thank you in advance

There are many many programs out there which hangs my devices and cause the behaviour you described. pocket hack master is one of them, which strangely works for others but not my device. Anothe is Touch Commander.
I usually uninstall the software once they cause freezes.
Try installing and testing your software one at a time to isolate it.
got a feeling it could be windows live. Unfortuantly, this is probably the programme i use the most. Is there any known issue with this?

I personally have had no problem with it, but sometimes one person's experience is not definitive. Try turning it off and see what happens.
mysterious double post deleted
i uninstalled all programmes and it seemed fine but when i put windows live back on. the problem started again. im using build 10.00026 i think. is there a later version than this that could help?

I think PK ROM is likely to have the latest version, but Powell is the one who could confirm this.

yes my roms have the latest build(18533 even though theres newer builds not available to public or been ported yet to athena) and the aboslute latest live 33.600 which is still latest in the roms i have from latest devices like polaris and dual
I am not sure if this has to do with using Android or not, but sometimes my HD2 decides to reboot itself unexpectedly, on WM as well as on Android and I can't really find what's causing it.
But what happens is, after switching itself off, it switches itself on again and hangs on the HTC logo, sometimes with or without the following info:
R 2.10.50.28_2
G 15.40.50.07U
D 1.66.76641
I am using stock ROM that came with it, i assumed it will be stable by itself but it reboots itself randomly sometimes just like on Android.
Does it have to do with the Radio version (i changed it from 2.07.xx). I tried 2.12.xx before and had same problems.
I should note that the only way for it to run again is to remove the battery for a while and then put it back. If i remove it and put it back briefly it will still hang.
Anyone is familiar with this strange behavior?
Thanks
ME too
I have the EXACT same problem. It only started for me after using android. now whenever i run Android it will unexpectedly reboot and sometimes hang like yours. It also does it in WM though not as often. I was able to notice it might have something to do with data connections bc if i run android but only use wifi it seems to be fine. I tried changing Radios WM ROMs and Android builds i even hardspled my phone again but nothing solved it. The problem needs to be talked about more. it got so bad for me I bought a Desire and gave up on my HD2 for the moment. Keep this thread up.
sounds like i have to follow
I hope not!
I notice if i do heavy download on wm or android i get it. But it could be that the phone is too hot? But it's not alarmingly hot tbh.
I hope more people can shed light on this.
Thanks for your input.
Yeah this is what seems to happen to me too, i start a downlogsd it gets a bit warm then freezes or reboots and gets stuck. However it doesnt even have to be a large download for me, a simple cab file or youtube video sometimes. And as far as heat, this never used to be a problem and i know for a fact my phone used to heat up way more before without a problem.
Maybe the qualcomm chipset go in "safe mode"..i remember that for first start tickle the orange led and after the device freeze or restart..maybe your device overheat. Try to touch cover's device or install a battery status monitor software. If you have changed radio, return on the original status. In case the restart happen always, make a backup using Pimbackup, and do an Hard Reset. For first try to use the telephone without the memory card and test the stabilty. If is all ok, you have to provide to format your SD card in Fat32. Try also to change the HSPL with the original SPL.

Thabks. Back to the subject, today i tried downloading on wifi a 150mb file on android and it rebooted byitself.
Then i tried to play a wmv video file on WM stock ROM and after 6 min it rebooted.
So its starting to look more and more like cpu/heat problem, anyone having these issues?
So does anyone think this might have something to do with all the overclocking in those android builds we've been using?
After 45 mins of install HD2 still hanging?
Hi, I just installed FroyoSense by darkstone
Release date: 07.AUG.2010
I don't know if this is the latest (probably not) but after 45 minutes of install the screen has in the top left hand corner tiny small text (excuse my lack of knowledge here) but no scrolling text as I expected, its now like 50 minutes, how long should it take?
Any help please would be appreciated, thanks

New to the HD2
So, I just bought a used HD2 a week ago. It was having similar problems in WM. I took it to a local store, and they said that is just how WM phones are. I've flashed HSPL and different radios and ROMs, installed Android, but still have trouble with freezing and rebooting on it's own no matter what I do. IT happens the same in WM or Android. Is there any way to find out if these might be due to hardware problems caused by the previous owner?
I got the same problem, when I do a lot of things on the same time on the HD2 it hangs or reboot. During de restart of the phone it hangs on the White screen with HTC on it. I have te take the battery out of it en than reboot again.
When I listen music and Internet the same time it almost always happends.
It happends on WM but also on Android, I tryed different ROM's and Radio Version's but nothing worked. Also tryed to work without SD-card, but still the same problem.
So I have no idea how to solve the problem...
I hope someone now's how to solve it...
Sorry for my bad English but I hope it's clear

Ok having waited for 2 hrs, I shutdown and installed FroyoStone v2, this time the tiny text appeared and faded after about 5 -10 seconds and the screen has gone blank, is this normal? No scrolling text, nothing, I going tpo re-boot and will keep you updated. Thx
If you read the previous posts you would know this thread has nothing to do with the problem youre describing. I understand the confusion of the title but pls read the thread first.

Your problem is unrelated to this thread.
So far we have more and more people having the related issue on WM and Android. We need some expert to help us pinpoint the problem.

i have the same issues.
I can add also playing videos for longerthan 5-10min would make the phone reboot too weither its WM or android.
Today I was in the Store where I bought mine HTC HD2, because I was sick off it. They told me that is was a familiar problem with the HTC HD2. They also would repair it free for me. I didn't do it yet because first I have to delete my HSPL etc.
I asked them also what the would repair to solve te problem, he told me: the will do a complete bodyswap. So everything will be renewed, exept the tochscreen and front.
So I guess it is a real and serious hardware problem....
Why we dont hear people conplaining about it if its comon?
I find that very odd.
Someone could try PMing one of the devs in the forum and linking them to this thread to see if they could shed some insight or at least bring more attention to the issue.
Well I live in the Netherlands and on the Dutch HTC HD2 forum, I heard some people complaining about it. But the salesman of the store said that it is a familiar problem, so that sounds to me like a regular problem. But indeed it's weird we doesn't hear more people complaining.
Maybe the most of the people think is normal with WM, but I am really sick of it...

hey ansar, nothing about unlocking tmobile version??
Okay.. this is driving me nuts.
I have the TMOUS HD7 synced with Zune and the ROMUpdateUtility is not able to connect to the phone.
I've tried this with Windows 7 and XP computers... both with admin and non-admin accounts.
Any idea what I'm missing?
Turn of the phone.
Then Hold power button and volume down.
You will enter the bootloader.
Wait till it says on the bottom USB and
Then launch the update app
Thank you for the tip! For whatever reason, all I saw was "Serial" the first time I went into the bootloader. It came up "USB" this time so I have it flashed now... thanks again
Dear ansar, pls kindly check ur download link, i can download ur rom from this link. If u can, upload ur rom to mediafire. Tks
Just an FYI, this new radio greatly improves battery life, but for me it added a major bug. When talking to someone the screen actually times out and if its been like two minutes and you pull the phone away to hang up, the proximity sensor doesn't register because the phone is "sleeping"... Flashing back to original tmous fixes, its a shame because i was getting like 5 hrs extra life on battery.

I've actually been having that issue with the older version (and this is my 2nd HD7 as well with the same issue). The proximity/light sensors turn the phone on/off during a call properly, but after a minute or two of talking, the phone no longer turns on when I pull it away from my face. I don't know if this is by design or a bug.
Also: Is this just a radio update? Or is there more to it than this? Software? Updated WP7?

Hi
It is present to all phones, at least for those i tested of.
A work around for me was the change of screen time-out setting in lock & wallpaper.
This version improves both OEM and Radio firmware.
Regards, ansar.
So is this then the latest ROM for the T-Mobile US HD7?
Yes, it's the newest. Also it improves battery life greatly. After flashing back to original and back to this one i've noticed that the proximity lock bug during phone call doesn't happen any more, seems random for when it happens on new flashes.

T-MOBILE
Hi, ansar.
Can i unlocked my T-MOBILE?
Thanks!!!!
I have to say, ever since using this newer ROM with the updated radios, my phone has lasted longer battery wise, and reception has even improved greatly. I get better data speeds, and there is even a slight improvement in overall performance of Windows Phone 7. It's all been pretty nice.
Thanks ansar.

Yes, this is essentially a hard reset. Everything gets wiped and you start all over again.

I didn't have to. With the free apps I installed it actually notified me that I'd already purchased the app and asked if I would simply like to download it again.

Your purchases and app downloads are tied to the primary Windows Live ID on your phone (the first Windows Live ID that you set up on your phone). So as long as you sign in with that same ID, you can redownload all your applications to your phone without charge. If you plug in your phone to your computer and sync it right after you hard reset, Zune will even restore all your apps for it so you don't have to go through the Marketplace manually.
Hello, as successful as I have been with this ROM I must note that it is a little bit buggy.
Today my phone rebooted for the first time since I've owned it for example. Also, I think it affects the 3G/2G selection process in a negative way. Normally I use ##3282# to set my phone 3G only but it seems to ignore the setting at times...
While I was using V1 yukiXDA and Xbmods rom, I loved the way Zune loaded up artist/song information of the song. The backgrounds changed to match whats playing on the artists page, I could hear audio samples from the Zune Marketplace.
However when I upgraded to V2, I somehow got regionally blocked. Ie it doesn't do any of that anymore. The dead giveaway of that is that in this image, my phone only has "Zune Account Settings" and nothing else.
How can I get Zune features reactivated without creating a new Live ID as I actively use that email acc. At least the live backgrounds
Perhaps there is some registry hack for it
EDIT: Maybe something like this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1237033 ?
Bump? Anyone?
I'm willing to ruin my registry to get this to work ....
did you do anything different when loading v1 and v2 like set country at the first screen after boot. US is default and you have to reboot to continue if you change it. Perhaps you left it in V1 and changed to India in v2.
On the thread you linked to, someone mentions changing the PC default region to US, have you tried this?
Good luck
Well there is no country selection option in the phone settings afaik but I suppose MS came to know that my phone is Indian cause my Live ID was an Indian one. But that never was an issue, Connect with Zune worked perfect in the past while I waited on NoDo and even used v1 of the Xbmod-YukiXDA rom. It just suddently vanished from my phone ....
Yes I did that. Now I've got the Zune PC software with all its Social/Marketplace glory up and running but with no changes in my phone

leave it plugged in to pc + zune, it may take a bit of time.
On first start up of WP7 after flashing ROM, region settings come up as mentioned above (FIRST boot or after hard reset (settings/about)) was anything different then between v1 and v2? if it persists you may want to hard reset the phone and leave it on US region. Unless somebody else knows different?
Hello. Am on pdateam wp7 7740 rom. I have realized that anytime I access the internet or do anything concerning internet connection the bottom part of my hd2 becomes very warm everytime. It sometimes makes it unable for charging. I want to know whether anyone is also experiencing this problem. And also how I can solve it. Thanks very much....
i to have had this problem. i did NOT have it with ANY rom prior to mango releases. i asked over a week ago if this problem had been addressed and/or fixed in recent releases and have not had any reply. after reading this i suppose the answer is no. as i said, i didn't have this problem with any pre-mango roms.
after i installed yuki & xbmod's 7720 zune updatable anytime i would stream say netflix or youtube for more than 10 minutes i would get the dreaded orange/green flashing led (read up real fast and found out it is an OVERHEAT notification)
one thing that i found is a slightly damp or very cold cloth on the back in the VERY hot area for just a few minutes will cool your leo down enough to start to charge again (leave the cold cloth on as long as you plan on charging after you get the overheat notification). i just love my baby to much to run the risk of burning it up so i went to android.
i REALLY miss WP7 but unless this is corrected or someone can tell me for sure i'll stick with android.
(if anyone knows if this has been resolved or knows a better workaround i'd really appreciate it as i detest the whole lengthy process of going between android to WP7)
cheers

whoops, didnt mean to thank you, ah well, have one on me
anyhow, the only time i get that heat issue is if i go crazy with wifi, day to day its fine, but if i start transfering 100s of MB of data it gets toasty!
Some one shld please help solve this problem.
have you tried messing about with different radios?
the reason some networks use different versions is because the settings suite some areas better than others.
Start with hardware radios as thats easy to change, then move to software radio starting with oldest, mango roms did have a newer software radiuo built in so that might be answer for you
I haven't had this issue since the first wave of roms released pre mango in January. Ever since mango this problem has been cleared up. I'm on BTTF rom 7740. Back on pre mango roms it would get so hot I could barely hold it. But now on Yuki & Xboxmods rom it NEVER heats up. Just my experience.

ok thanks.and by the way,what's a software and hardware radio?..and can u please give me a list of compatible mango radios...
well, hardware radio is what you used to flash when dealing with WM6.5, you can find all the radios in the HD2 wiki or 6.5 development forum, that is easy to flash as all you have to do is stick it in tricolour bootloader, and flash via your pc using the customRUU, typically these are named
2.12.50.02
2.14.50.04
2.15.50.14
there are a lot more than that, different areas will like different radios, trial and error is usually the only way to go, for example, you may lose the heat issue but lose signal as well, or perhaps your battery life will improve or drop like a rock
The software radio is something windows phone brought to us, as far as i can tell the only way to change that is via flashing WP7 again, you essentially swap out the part00.bin from the install folder and replace it with a different radio version
a quick search on the windows phone 7 HD2 stickys should find what your are looking for
but these radios are typically called
5.52.09.16
5.51T.09.29a
5.65.09.11a
again, there are a lot more than those ive lists, i think there are about 11 in total.
